They Are So Real

Every time Buggy and Shanks do something incredibly stupid, Rayleigh feels it in some parental way. At first it was when they were little and Rayleigh wasn't around, but as soon as he felt that strange sensation he would immediately start looking for them and would find them in the most ridiculous, possibly dangerous situations.

The thing is, it stayed with him even when Baby Blue and Baby Red became adults. He's just sitting at the bar drinking his booze like he always does and then he stops for a few seconds and goes "Damn... Buggy's doing it again...."

Honestly, I haven't seen any One Piece characters (Except for the Straw Hats, yk) cosplayed as often as Buggy...

Maybe I'm wrong, but I think this says a lot about what a DIVA he is

I'm sure that every time Alvida sees some information about Red Haired Shanks, her face becomes so irritated and tired, just because she knows that Buggy will definitely talk to her about it for at least 2 hours. And she will have to listen and nod to every word he says. Because they're besties.

One day, the Roger and Whitebeard Pirates fought again, but somewhere in the middle of Roger and Edward's battle, Rayleigh grabbed his captain and Roger wanted to be indignant at first, but his first mate said in panic that he couldn't find their boys. Shanks and Buggy were too young and were told to stay on the ship, but they clearly didn't listen and Rayleigh realized this and wasted no time. Roger almost immediately began to panic along with him and Edward Newgate could have been angry that their fight was interrupted, but instead he was angry and yelled at Roger for letting his "sons" disappear.

Now the entire battle has stopped and the pirates from both crews are busy trying to find the two boys all over the island and both captains are arguing with each other

Something like

E:How could you even let this happen?!"

R:"I didn't have time to keep an eye on them, you know, I was busy with you!"

E:"You're a terrible father, that's all!"

R:"WHA—"

R: GOD JUST SHUT UP AND FIND THIS KIDS

You know that thing in ZoSan where Usopp always catches them at their most piquant moments? What if it's a family thing and Yasopp always catches Shuggy in situations like this? Shanks is always like "oh hi Yasopp, do you mind we're a little busy—" while Buggy squeals and pushes him away.

Best thing odas ever done in character design was give buggy long luscious locks of hair

Oh, so that’s what the ponytail is for…
